METHODOLOGY

Background information, including reviews of each energy efficient industrial technology and its current rate of deployment, by region and nation as relevant, was collected from government, industry, and corporate sources. Additional data were gathered from email or phone conversations with industry insiders, government officials, regulators, and other players active in the global industry for energy efficient industrial technologies. Data were compiled by the analyst for all national and regional markets considered. Available data were assessed by the analyst for gaps, underreporting, and other signs of inaccurate or missing information. Where information gaps or inaccuracies were identified, these were estimated using applicable and available benchmarking tools, including national or regional level changes in commercial building development and construction, commercial energy consumption, and regulated and non–regulated trends in energy efficiency deployment.

BCC Research’s studies of current and historic market trends was conducted primarily via internet research and direct interviews and data collection, relying on available industry and government data and information gathered from phone– and email–based interviews. Internal company data and annual documentation of sales relevant to a particular technology or sales category were also reviewed in order to prepare market assessments. Based on the results of our surveys and research, BCC Research analyzed the potential applications for each technology, forecast the remaining 2014 sales (Q2 through Q4 forecast), and sales through 2019. Additionally, when available, the data provided in this report were compared with other industry data to ensure relevance, applicability and accuracy.
